A Review of GPU-Accelerated Finite-Difference Numerical Simulation: Four-Phase Synthesis, Design Rules, and a Metrics Card
This review synthesizes research on graphics processing unit (GPU)-accelerated finite-difference numerical simulation (FDNS) from 2003 to 2025 to clarify how GPU computing has reshaped simulation workflows rather than merely accelerating isolated numerical kernels and to address challenges related to comparability, ver...
